I improved my PC from a 1660 Super to a 2060 Super. I currently have a Ryzen 5 2600, which feels a bit lacking for the 2060 Super. I’m considering adding a Ryzen 5 5600X since it offers up to four times better gaming performance than the 2600. Should I stick with the 5600X or add another component? (AMD/AM4 socket only)

It looks like a strong fit for the 2060s, but if you plan to upgrade the GPU later, consider investing in a 5800X3D—it might cause some bottlenecks, while the 5600X offers more stability right now.

The 5600X isn't the best option. You should consider the 5600 or the 5700X instead.

Choose the 5600 for performance, the 5500 for cost savings, or the 5800X3D if you plan to upgrade your GPU significantly later.
